This stuff is making me broke $30 at a time... My silver lens cap has dents, will I take better photos with this nicer black one?

Probably not made specifically for the 50/0.95 but from what I've read this should fit nicely (and it's not $150)

Edit: Oh yeah, did everybody notice Ebay is raising their final value fees for photo stuff from about 5.5% to 10% on April 16th?!
You save the 0.50 listing fee though...
 
good to know, I really prefer push on caps, my 0.95's chrome one has lost some of the inner corduroy/velvet on the inner rim so it won't have a positive fit.

i was considering getting a pinch cap for like $5, so it's kinda hard to justify the extra $25, but it looks just so beautiful and it's a push on... dang.
 
Somebody will enjoy that, not me. Speaking of that velvet tape though, I had started a thread looking for it;

That stuff I ultimately got from micro-tools is really much too thick it turns out (.8mm, we need like .3mm). More of a foam product really though it's sand-able so I can make it a bit thinner. Still, it's not the right stuff for the inside of most lens caps and I need to update the thread. If anyone finds the proper material please post in that thread.
